Iran denying UN access to military sites

You don’t say! Iran Says It’s Not Obliged to Give Inspectors Access to Military Sites?  But I thought the UN and the Europeans had a cup o’ tea with the Iranians, and what not.  Golly… who saw this coming? 

(CNSNews.com) – Amid continuing concerns about just how much a European-brokered agreement on Iran’s nuclear program has achieved, Tehran on Sunday shrugged off reports saying it has denied the U.N.‘s nuclear watchdog access to two military sites.

Iranian foreign ministry spokesman Hamid Reza Asefi said Iran was not obliged to allow International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspectors to visit military sites.

Asefi would not say directly whether it would allow agency officials to visit the two military sites, located at the Parchin military base and at a facility in Lavisan.

The New York Times last week quoted IAEA director-general Mohamed ElBaradei as saying that he had repeatedly asked Iran for access to the two sites, without success.
